Practicality is.

the only requirement. In the. process of creating their "ideal worlds, each student must decide if -mankind is basically good or bad. How the utopia is achieved, the type of social systems, religion, and how the young and old aire treated must also be discussed in this paper. Earlier, the class had read such Utopias as "1984," "Brave New World," "Ere- whon," and WaWen Two." like Plato's "Republic," Ra- cons "New Atlantis," and More's "Utopia," may influence and guide the students.

Either a team member wouldn't show, the whole team wouldn't show, or it would rain or snow or something else would happen so that the picture wouldn't get taken, and the photographer and I would have to start setting up times all over again. Then there was the matter of layout and copy. What I thought looked nice or was appropriate or inappropriate Upon arrival, delegates will be served a morning snack by the Terre Haute Senior High Interclub. A welcome by the Terre Haute YW. devotions by Greencastle Y-Teens, and group singing led by Evansville Y-Teens will start the day.

Only one philosophy class is taughit at Wiley. WliJley is also the only school in Vigo County which offers its students philosophy. The class is open to seniors oinily and tlhe classroom is filled to capacity. Sadly enough, this is the last year philosophy will be offered. To the dismay of many underclassmen, the class Li not included on the new school's curriculum.

However, hopes are. still high that this class will someday be revived at the new school. Perhaps then oflher philosophy students will be able to aigree witti Plato, who once said.

But as the old saying goes, "Rome wasn't built in a day," aud neither was the program! I had to spend hours on the phone each night calling the various tandem team organizations trying to set up times for pictures of the teams. Have you ever tried to find a time that 12 people were free college people with their crazy, mixed-up schedules. All this time spent phoning and talking wouldn't have seemed so tiring and downright wasteful if the pictures had been taken as scheduled.

But, to quote another famous "The best plans of mice and men often go astray." And to did my plans for someone else thought. And since this booklet will circulate not only among the university students, but also the citizens of Terre Haute and even the surrounding towns, there was an enormous span of interest to consider. There were the inevitable meetings, too. Lunch hours, between class hours, after class hours, and even late hours spent discussing plans, explaining plans, defending plans, changing plans, getting information, receiving helpful hints, meetings for almost anything one could think of. More phone calls.

"No, he is out now, could you call back at 10?" "He's in conference now, call back in two hours." "You just missed him, he's playing flag football with some co-eds." Oa and on. The final "fun" came the first night of spring vacation, when I had finally received all the information and pictures I needed and sat down at the dining room table with a package of paper, a box of paper clips, about 10 manila folders containing all my Continued On Page 30, Col. 4. the cafeteria features a senior class on the first encounters with teachers, counselors and other facets of high school life.

Lori Gross, Connie Turney, Tina Sisson and Mike Badertsher also spent their vacations in the Sunshine State.

The eastern state of New York was also a focal point of travel for girls throughout Terre Haute. Debby Kruse, Mary Tuttle and Lou Purcell took the lengthy bus trip to the Emoire City for a week of tours, Broadway plays and hish expenses. Mike Curry and Greg Odom spent their free time camping in the mountains of Tennessee. Washington. D.C., was the vacation spot for David Ditto.

Mark Tanner visited Chl- caao and spent a few days with his elder brother. Bill Nelson's week was full of travel to Kentucky Lake, Cincinnati and Chicago. The southern states were the center of attention for Cynthia Morrow. Many students soent their week camping with friends. Marty Ellis and Alan Banfield spent most of the week in the wilderness.

John Andrews, Karen Romero and friends also camped frequently. Isabell McCarthy occupied her time camping with her family. Transcontinental trips were also in order. Mary Traverse is now spending a 19-day holiday in Spain with her sister. Mrs.
